This series gives coccicheck some love by modernizing it to catch up to some features implemented in Coccinelle, of most importance is parmap support and some indexing enhancements. This should help speed things up considerably, for me this now runs twice as fast in some situations.
This also takes advantage of the open sourcing of Glimpse, thanks to the university of Arizona for doing and to Udi Manber for helping push that out. Since Coccinelle is ever evolving this also now allows developer to require specific Coccinelle versions on top of the SmPL patches. This is part of a larger series, all of which you can find here: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/mcgrof/linux-next.git/log/?h=20160616-sysdata-v2 Since further development is done on top of this we may need to coordinate with another maintainer for how these go in. The coccicheck changes will be important to help speed up some of the new Coccinelle API checks and transformations implemented in later series on the request firmware API. Luis R.
